Our correspondent says how the population is preparing for his visit here it for his visit. This market trader is hoping to cash in on u. S. President Barack Obamas visit to kenya, his First Since Taking Office seven years ago. In anticipation, a he made 400 tshirts. In the old country of kenya. There is president obamas ancestral village, thanking him for changes paid largely by outsiders and the kenyan government. Electricity could reach them for the first time, after obama won election in 2008. More water for drinking. Obama is a source of pride and profit, but for the kenyan obama, he is a Family Member first. They hope he will continue to inspire. He proves too many kenyans that you can arise from humble backgrounds to become one of the most powerful people in the world. Both americans and kenyans are united in fascination over obamas paternal line. For more aurore for more analysis, lets bring in douglas herbert. Doug, a lot of people are happy to see barack obama in kenya but there is also a lot of disappointment. Doug lets start with the happy part. There is a obama mania spreading. The tshirts, the potemkin village aspect of nairobi, the capital, where roads have been repaved, reasphaltic. There is a real euphoria, and they want to put their best foot forward for this president. Polls show that 80 , eight out of 10 kenyans have a favorable attitude toward obama. That is probably what he wishes he had back home in the United States. This is his fourth trip to what we have been calling his ancestral homeland because his late father, barack obama senior, was from kenya. It is his first trip as a sitting u. S. President. The first time he went, back in 1987, when he was a young man working for Community Service he literally went, crashed on his ands couch traveled to his fathers ancestral village, which we saw in that report. He had a goat in his lap while he was riding along the way. There is a sense among some kenyans, a disappointment that because he is now president , he is the big cheese now and he cannot do those things. There is a little disappointment in that. There is also a disappointment among some kenyans, a sense that he sort of avoiding kenya and there are some big reasons for that involving their president. He has gone to a lot of other countries in his first two terms. He has been to egypt, to tanzania, to south africa, senegal, ghana. Why did he and void why did he avoid kenya until now . But people are happy that he is coming. Having a u. S. President , and visit your country is still a big honor for a lot of these people, and they are very proud of barack obama. That favorable Public Opinion the 80 of kenyans, really do admire what he has done, and they think he has done good things and perhaps well sat will have some sort of influence on kenya. Aurore there is a lot of controversy about the choice of countries he is visiting. Doug the white house has been very upfront for several years. The president of the country kenyatta, was under indictment for charges linked to violence in the aftermath of elections in 20072008, in which hundreds of people were killed and thousands were displaced. It was ethnic violence. Those charges were dropped, but one of the people that barack obama is likely to be crossing paths with while in kenya is the kenyan Deputy President , william ruto and that is a man that still faces indictment from the International Criminal court. Barack obama does feel like the benefits outweigh the drawbacks and he really wants to try to rebuild a tattered relationship with kenya. Both security issues, trade issues, economic ties, are all important, and obviously the fight against terrorism because kenya has been a target of the auch of bob of the all should bob the Al Shabaab Group in somalia. He will not shy away from bringing up gay rights. Gay sex is subject to 14 years in prison in kenya right now. It is illegal. Obama said i will bring it up. I will not shy away from the issue. Kenyan officials would like him to remain silent on that issue and they have made that clear. Aurore thank you very much douglas herbert, for your analysis. In somalia, Government Troops say they have won back the control of a town backed by the African Union forces. According to security sources, al shabaab fighters have now fled that stronghold. The insurgents also lost the bageled the battle for a nearby town thursday. John kerry hit back at critics of the nuclear deal, saying a better agreement with iran would have been a fantasy. Skeptic of sentences that could make it skeptical of sentences that could make it easy for iran to build a bomb. But john kerry says that is not true. Take a listen to what the u. S. Secretary of state had to say about that. Secretary kerry the u. S. , after laboriously negotiating this agreement with partners, if we were to walk away from those partners, we have squandered the best chance to solve this problem with peaceful means. Whether or not they have produced the fissile material for a bomb. We cannot bomb that knowledge away, nor can we sanction the knowledge away. Aurore the 19th stage of a Tour De France is about to kick off. There are three stages left before the end of the race on the shelves elysees, but today is one of the most important. This is one of the last chances of chris frome of Chris Froomes rivals to catch him. He has today and of course tomorrow. They are going to eat up some time, with chris froome. This could be the stage for it because there are a lot of climes. The dissents can really be dangerous. That is where we could see a fall. If he crashes out, he will not win the race. There is also this legendary uncategorized climb a huge climb, 20 two kilometers, absolutely terrifying. It is a position from which may be some of his rivals can try to get away from him. Nobody is really managed to do it. He has managed to reel them in. There is that big final climb as well. We are six kilometers away from the finish line.

Since being elected in january, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has kept creditors out and moved negotiations to brussels. Aurore tell us how the markets are doing today. Kate the european markets have tipped upwards. Midway through the tape midway through the trading day the dax up. Manufacturing activity in the eurozone slowed down over july which could raise concerns about a slowdown in the second half of the year. Company earnings have been driving the markets this friday.

Firsthalf profits dipped after paying a heavy fine in china related to its baby food business. It has given up its infant formula unit, hit by a food scare, to focus on the french dairy giant said sales have risen in line with expectations but it is facing a slowdown in key european markets. Aurore finally, you have truly Important News for anyone who has a sweet tooth, and you have statistics about who eat the most chocolate in the world. Kate that dubious honor goes to switzerland, where the average citizen eats over nine kilograms of chocolate per year, 20 pounds of chocolate. Austria and germany tied for second place with eight kilos per person. This is all a study by euromonitor. It features india venezuela and china as the fastestgrowing market. Americans pursue americans consume only 4. 3 kilos per year. That puts them about 20th in the world. More than 18 billion worth. In france, the average is only 4. 2 kilos per person. But you and i can skew that data a little. I brought you a little square of chocolate. Aurore i reckon we eat more chocolate than the swiss, more than 9. 1 kilograms of chocolate per year. Kate in the newsroom we do anyway. Aurore kate moody, thank you. It is time now for the press review. Aurore you are watching france 24, and it is time to look at what is grabbing headlines around the world. Florence phenomena florence the Eminem Florence villeminot is here with me. Flo it is a huge story across the press today. It is on the front page of the wall street journal, talking about how can you is getting ready for obamas kingship trip. His visit has raised the excitement level in kenya, and that is an understatement. If you look at the canyon press, lots of excitement in the kenyan press. In the kenyan press. If you take a look at a people called the standard, kenya stands to gain a lot from this homecoming tour. The visit comes with an endorsement that gives kenya the opportunity to further strengthen its diplomatic and its trading ties. Another editorial, this time in the daily nation, it agrees that it is an historic visit. It is symbolic and it is the first time a sitting president has ever visited kenya. Also, obama will attend the Global Entrepreneurship summit accompanied by investors, so it is also a Good Business opportunity. Aurore a Good Business opportunity, but also a massive security operation for locals there, put in place to protect the president. Flo the streets of nairobi are quite empty, and yet nairobi welcomes obama a little sign in the back says, nairobi anans should stay out. There is also the Al Qaeda Affiliated Group Al Shabaab that is posted in neighboring somalia. Cnn went so far as to say that kenya is a hotbed for terror and this upset a lot of kenyans. You can see this, a screenshot from cnn, where it is calling kenya a hotbed of terror. Kenya took to twitter using the someone tell cnn, the was used 75,000 times yesterday and it is continuing. Some of these tweets are angry, some more sarcastic. I pulled out one that is pretty funny, pulled out by a twitter user. You can see a giraffe in front of Mount Kilimanjaro oh, my god, a terrorist in a hotbed of terror. Aurore the case of a severely braindamaged man is at the hit at the heart of the debate over the right to die with dignity. The case took a significant twist yesterday. Flo a medical team that had been charged with ruling on his future said that the calm answering conditions to made a decision to make a decision are not in place. The medical team said doctors are facing serious Security Fears. You can see that we are talking about the impossible decision. It says it is self a tough decision it is such a tough decision. That the man is going to die like a Roman Emperor at the circus deciding whether or not a fighter is going to live or die. Aurore and this leftwing newspaper is critical of the Security Fears that the doctors talked about. Flo absolutely, because the Security Fears are quite significant. Prolife activists online have called for members of his medical team to essentially be kidnapped. The paper is critical of these prolife activists the hardcore traditional catholics, and the fact that they are threatening doctors. They are calling these prolife activists fundamentalists and he says they are just as bad as islamist fundamentalists. Essentially, what they are doing here is a form of verbal terrorism, and they are walking all over frances sigrid principle of that sacred principle frances sacred principle of freedom. A euthanasia law essentially gives doctors the right to withdraw care. Aurore lets move on to a lighter story. We will take a look at a communist paper, focusing on a very french physician, and that is a Summer Camp Program partially funded by the french state. Flo they are partially funded by the state, meaning they are relatively cheap and therefore accessible to poor families
